Real Estate's 'In Mind' follows the band's familiar jangle-pop style despite the departure of guitarist Matt Mondanile.

 What should give prestige and attract/inspire people in our extraordinary country is indeed exploited in the worst way.

Overall, the film ranks lower than Knight of Cups in the director’s recent oeuvre. Explore Terrence Malick’s Song to Song—watch now and decide if its beauty outweighs its emptiness.
